It’s because there’s still enough oxygen in the blood to keep the brain alive for quite a while, so long as you can keep moving different blood to the brain. The brain is what kills you and what needs the most oxygen, so just cycling the blood that’s there will keep it from dying for quite a while.

The amount of people who have commented to you with completely incorrect reasons for why you only do compressions is something else. They’re all getting up voted, too.
But anyhow, for all of them: Single person cpr is non stop compressions at 100 to 120 bpm, non stop.
Two person cpr is the same rate, but two breaths every 30 compressions (2 every 15 for an infant).
Single person cpr is done that way now, because one person working by themselves can’t manage to effectively do both for very long at all before starting to screw up or move to slow, and the compressions are most important. It basically takes to long to stop, move up towards the head, tilt the head back, open the mouth, give two appropriate breaths while looking for chest rise, then reposition and go back to compressions.
Trust me when I say that you’ll be wore the heck out if you have to do 120 compressions a minute, almost hard enough to tear ribs from cartilage for more than a few minutes on your own. Adding in the breaths just isn’t something that has been shown to pay off.

“meaning the reading of data and leaking it through a side channel—is a flagrant violation of the constant-time paradigm.”
Continuously use the roach gel.
That’s stuff (of any brand, really) will help a ton, but since you live in an apartment, you’ll never be able to keep all the roaches away unless everyone in the complex starts doing something about it.
I just want to state on the record that the book is a short read and extremely better than the movie and that anyone here who hasn’t read Enders Game, should do so.

I’ve seen some 70 year olds with a lot of strength and energy left to burn. I’ve seen others that look like they might need a breather after walking 20 feet.
Tostinos used to have a pizza called “zesty italian”. It was the best pizza there was. A Lil spicy with Canadian bacon, pepperoni, fennel, and Italian sausage.
I have spent 25 years missing those things.
Oh man. Those somehow tasted bad and good at the same time.

That train left the US quite a while back.

That’s when I moved to lemmy and found an apk called Thunder that is extremely similar. So right now the only real difference for me is the much lower user base, so there’s less “niche” subs/instances. Of course, that will also go away so long as people keep migrating over.

So yeah. It has gone long enough to call it “historically”, I’d say.

They’re a far better option than full evs in the US right now and for several more years at least. The batteries are cheaper to replace and it makes the ice and transmissions last a very long time before wearing out. Not to mention being able to use your vehicle in times of any large scale disasters that take out power for a while.

Aside from that, there valuation is double what it would be. This stock will wind up settling at 15 to 20 a share within a couple months, IMO. Their revenue isn’t really that much, the ai data isn’t going to become much more profitable for them after this year, and redditors have been getting less thrilled with the site for the past 5 years. They’re peaking in profits right now. It won’t get better for them.
